「NEPENTHES FRIENDS」Improvise Combustion with Mike Ming

Our good friend and past Nepenthes New York gallery exhibitor Mike Ming will have an art show opening this weekend. Along with a collective of other artists, Mike will be presenting some recent work. The opening reception will be this Saturday starting from 6PM so if you are in the area stop by, say hello, and see what our friends have been up to!

"Improvise Combustion is a group show organized by member Chris Mendoza, featuring a collection of collaborations and new work by Michael Miyahira aka Mike Ming, Kenji Hirata, Pablo Power, & Naomi Kazama.

Improvise Combustion is a show concept to liken the visual medium to a group jazz ensemble. It is the two day studio session of soloists to perform as a single form, a band unit, similar to the work of great improvisational musicians. For this particular session, it is an opportunity for the artists to re-unite and re-ignite collaborative connections. The end result is an opening featuring the mural canvas, or perhaps the bands melodies and rhythms, as the rest of the gallery space is transformed to the soloist's moods and collaborations."
